description	Build durable backend AI agents with the eve framework. Use when creating, editing, or debugging an eve project — agent instructions, skills, tools, connections, channels, sandboxes, subagents, schedules, or evals.

eve

eve is a filesystem-first framework for durable backend AI agents. An agent is a directory on disk — instructions, skills, tools, connections, channels, subagents, and schedules are all files — and eve compiles and runs it.

Source of truth

The complete documentation ships inside the eve package. Do not rely on this skill for guidance — always read the bundled docs, which match the installed version exactly:

node_modules/eve/docs/

Start with node_modules/eve/docs/README.md. It contains the full index and recommended reading order. Before writing any eve code, read the relevant guide there first.

If eve is not installed yet, install it (npm install eve) or scaffold a new agent with npx eve init <agent-name>, then read the bundled docs.

See references/source-of-truth.md for the repo-local handoff boundary.
